Write the name of the corresponding alkane and the name of the alkyl group together or put a hyphen between them. Thus, by putting a hyphen before the name obtained, we also write down the number of carbon atoms carrying the lateral chain. Thus the IUPAC name of the given compound is obtained.

What is IUPAC name example?
The IUPAC name is therefore: 2,5,5-trimethyl-2-hexene. In example (2) the longest chain incorporating both carbon atoms of the double bond has a length of five. There is a seven-carbon chain, but it contains only one of the double bond carbon atoms. Consequently, the root name of this compound will be pentene.
What is the first rule of IUPAC?
According to the Rule of First Point of Difference, when series of locants containing the same number of terms are compared term by term, that series is "lowest" which contains the lowest number on the occasion of the first difference.
How do you find a common name and IUPAC name?
The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry has some standardized rules to write the IUPAC name of the chemical compound. In common name, the alkyl group is written first followed by the name of the functional group attached. Example: CH3CH2OH Common name is ethyl alcohol.
